I sought out acupuncture treatment with Mihae on the recommendation of a friend. When I started treatment, I had had lower back pain for the better part of a year. There had been no trauma that caused the problem and chiropractic care did not relieve the condition. In addition, I had suffered from bloating, gas and severe constipation for many years. I was treated approximately every two weeks for three months and made the recommended changes to my diet. The results with regard to my gastric distress were immediate and I have been able to discontinue fiber supplements and stool softeners. My back also showed gradual improvement, beginning with the first treatment, and I am now completely without pain.



Due to the success in treatment of these symptoms, I continue to visit Mihae for treatment of symptoms associated with pari-menopause. I also have presented her with a severely sprained ankle and an allergic sinus attack. The pain from my ankle has decreased considerably. My allergy attack, which typically would have resulted in laryngitis, improved IMMEDIATELY, and all symptoms were eliminated in the two days following treatment. My symptoms of depression are more regulated and I feel a greater sense of clarity and balance in my thoughts and emotions.



In addition to her success as a doctor, I find Mihae to be a sensitive professional, deeply interested in the health and well-being of her clients. She examines the individual in a holistic manner, considering personality, body type and medical history. While Eastern medicine may take longer to complete the healing process as compared to the Western approach, which seems to apply drugs to every situation. However, in the long run, I believe that acupuncture works to restore the natural balance inherent in the body of the individual and therefore affects a more permanent solution.
